[comp.software-eng] Project documentation

john@uw-nsr.UUCP (John Sambrook) (06/16/88)

My research group is interested in improving its software development
methodologies.  One area of concern to our group, and I imagine to other
groups as well, concerns project documentation.  I would be interested in
learning what types of documentation other groups produce when executing
software development projects.

In particular, I am more interested in document types and content, and
less interested in style issues.  Of particular interest would be general
outlines of specification documents, design documentation, statement of 
work, test plans, etc.  It would be great if we could establish a
working repository of such information.  TeX and/or LaTeX sources are
also of interest to me personally, but perhaps not to other sites.

I will point out that the IEEE publishes some standards in this area.
We are ordering copies of these standards, but I thought I would ask for
some net-input as well.  

Thanks,
